Roberto Tobias (Michael Brandon)
is a drummer in a rock band who has noticed a man following him for the
last several days. Angered by this, he confronts the stranger in an
abandoned theater to find out what he wants. The man claims he does not
know what Roberto is talking about, and pulls a switchblade. The two
struggle, and Roberto accidentally stabs the man, who falls into an
orchestra pit, lifeless.
To make matters worse, someone in a bizarre puppet mask has been hiding
in the upper wings of the theater and takes incriminating photographs of
Roberto holding the bloody knife. Roberto flees, but the next day he
receives the dead man's ID in the mail. It becomes apparent that the
masked figure has no interest in going to the police, and instead wants
to drive Roberto mad with fear and paranoia. But why?
